WWE Kicks Wrestlemania Edition: Shane McMahon, Rob Gronkowski Steal The Show In Air Jordans

WWE’s biggest night lived up to the hype (mostly) as Wrestlemania 33 delivered with a number of matches and moments that fans will be talking about for weeks and, in the case of The Undertaker if this indeed is his last ride, years to come. There was something for every type of wrestling fan, from the hardcore purists who loved the Kickoff Match between Neville and Austin Aries to the internet wrestling community who popped huge for the return of the #Broken (but not really because lawsuits) Hardyz to the casual types who adored John Cena proposing to longtime girlfriend Nikki Bella and the WWE lifers who caught all sorts of feels when ‘Taker left his gear in the ring. The sneakerheads who were looking for something heat on the feet of WWE’s finest were not disappointed either.

Wrestlemania proper began with a grudge match between everybody’s favorite pure wrestler, AJ Styles, and everybody’s favorite son of the owner of the company, Shane McMahon. WWE loves to say that there are several main events in every Wrestlemania, but the reality is that if you’re not on last, you might as well go on first to set the table and let every other performer try to top your work. And as memorable as the night was, no match could top what AJ and Shane put together. Shane-O-Mac even got Sneaker Twitter talking with the Air Jordan XXX1s he had on, which turned out to be the CNY colorway. Shane rocks retros for Smackdown Live, but he goes with the current model for pay-per-view. That should tell you something when he’s attempting a Shooting Star Press…

As for the rest of the night in kicks, the NFL made an impact on WWE’s signature show with an appearance from Rob Gronkowski and his Air Jordan 6s in the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal trying to help his friend Mojo Rawley. Kofi Kingston played Wrestlemania host alongside his New Day buddies in adidas JS Wings, Enzo Amore made his presence felt in custom Air Jordan 6 Pinnacle Golds, Nikki Bella brought out her Mache-designed Nike Dunks, and the duo of Carmella and James Ellsworth wore black and gold Js for the Smackdown Women’s Championship Match.

Jordan Brand Has Air Jordan 12 Cleats For MLB Opening Day


Major League Baseball is back!

Our Best Look Yet At The PSNY x Air Jordan 12 Bordeaux

We’ve seen the PSNY x Air Jordan 12 Bordeaux before but these latest images of the upcoming collab between PSNY and Jordan Brand gives us our best look yet. Said to be one of the three upcoming PSNY x Air Jordan 12 colorways, this version rocks a Bordeaux-colored upper constructed out of a premium nubuck. The tonal theme of the shoe extends on to the entire sole unit, laces, eyelets and all of the branding hits. Special features on the shoe include the signature PSNY tongues and Public School insole branding. FYI, it’s going to be tough getting a pair being that they are rumored be super exclusive and will only be sold at select cities around the country. Is the PSNY x Air Jordan 12 Bordeaux the best color option from the pack? Stay tuned as more info begins to surface.

The Jordan Formula 23 Toggle Comes With A Unique Lacing System

Not to be confused with the Jordan Formula 23, the Jordan Formula 23 Toggle shares many similarities but the new unique lacing system os what helps it stand out from the pack.

This modified version of the Jordan Formula 23 appears to be a lower-cut version thanks in large part to the shorter neoprene inner sleeve. A new feature on the shoe is the unique bungee cord lacing system (peep the toggle on the heel) that gives you the liberty of tightening or loosening up the overall fit of the shoe. Below you will find a phylon midsole and rubber outsole that help make the shoe lightweight, low profile & responsive. We found these at an international retailer for $135, so it leads us to believe that we could be seeing these stateside in the near future.

The Jordan Formula 23 Toggle Introduces A Strange Lacing System

While simple in construction and the overall silhouette of this new Jordan lifestyle shoe, the lacing system is quite intricate for the Formula 23 Toggle. Obviously the main feature of the model since it even references the lacing system in the name, the Formula 23 Toggle features a bungee-cord-like lacing design that loosens and tightens in the heel with a lace lock?the same that you know from the Air Jordan 6. Are you feeling the techy design? If you like what you see, be on the lookout for these at select Jordan Brand retailers soon.

#ArtonFire: Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG Royal Inspired Art

Jordan Brand went HAM this weekend! There were plenty of releases to choose from, but there’s no doubt that the most coveted ones has a Jumpman (or Nike Air in this case) on them. One day after dropping the KAWS x Air Jordan 4, Jordan Brand gives us another gem in the form of the remastered version of the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG Royal. Rocking that tumbled leather we all most of us love, the Royal 1s were definitely a hot pick up this Saturday morning. Who managed to score a pair? Whether the answer is yes or no, I thought it’d be cool to share some Jordan 1 High Royal inspired #ArtonFire with you guys that will either make you even happier that you scored a pair or even more depressed that you got to add another L to your resume. Check out the artwork below and be sure to tap/click on the artist?s name to see more of their work on IG!

Parisian-based cappiekaldi gives us a quick illustration of the Jordan 1 High Royal everyone was after this morning. Rumors suggest that the Royals were a bit harder to pick up than the Bred 1s that dropped last year, so if you got a pair, consider yourself lucky. You’ve got a good one on your hands.

Hand drawn. The artwork you see above is hand drawn! How dope is that?! London-based stephfmorris creates a work of art in the form of this clean Air Jordan 1 High drawing. “Technically” it’s supposed to be a Jordan 1 Bred, but since it’s done in greyscale, I’m pretty sure they it can also be classified as a Royal 1, right? But that’s beside the point. Lowkey, I’d be just as hyped owning this original piece as I’d be owning a pair of actual Royal 1s.

One of hit latest creations has Kawhi and MJ doing their best impersonation of the Sistine Chapel all while admiring the beauty of the Jordan 1 and 31 Flight Guy Royal that dropped this morning. Peep Jordan’s teammates and the Jordan Brand athletes behind the GOAT.

Although this one was already shared on our KicksonFire IG earlier this week, being that the grandaddy of them all (Wrestlemania) takes place Sunday evening, it was a must to share this cmineses_designs illustration that pairs up two of the biggest events of the weekend. Royal 1s dropped this a.m. and the Undertaker could possibly be fighting his last match ever tomorrow night at Wrestlemania. What a time to be alive!

There May Be A PSNY x Air Jordan 15 Collab In The Works

We’ve already reported that PSNY and Jordan are be linking once more to release a trio of new PSNY x Air Jordan 12 colorways. Today’s news suggest that a PSNY x Air Jordan 15 collab could also be in the works.

What you see above is a teaser image of what is believed to be the PSNY x Air Jordan 15. Recently shared by Dao-Yi Chow, the teaser image shows PSNY branding on the heel region of the shoe. While this could easily be a nice photoshopped image, it wouldn’t be too far of a reach to think these could actually be dropping considering that Jordan Brand has been bringing back Air Jordan 15 colorways this year. Thoughts on this potential collab? Would you like to see them drop? Let us know in the comments below.

#ArtonFire: Kaws x Air Jordan 4 Inspired Art

The highly anticipated, highly coveted, super-hyped KAWS x Air Jordan 4 finally dropped today! Most of us wanted a pair, very few of us were actually able to acquire one. How many of our readers managed to cop a pair? If I was a betting man, I’d say less than 0.05% (Don’t ask me how I came up with that percentage, it just felt right while I was typing it).

For all of us who went home empty handed, I’ve gathered a few dope #ArtonFire KAWS x Air Jordan 4 inspired pieces I came across while on IG, and decided to share with you guys to help with the big fat L most of us took today. Get a good look at the art below and be sure to tap on the artist’s name to see more of their work on IG!

Art comes in many forms and style, and above you will see exactly what I’m talking about. eatlikeyoureondeathrow__ is seen doing what she does best by creating edible KAWS art showing the big fat L we all got once we knew there was no chance in hell we’d be able to get a pair of the KAWS x Air Jordan 4. Damn.

 

michaelambard

If there was ever a sketch/drawing that represented how we all felt after we didn’t get a call back from the raffle for the KAWS x Air Jordan 4 raffle, michaellambard hit it on the nose with this piece. One of his latest creations says it all. Sad, disappointed, heart-broken, depressed all rolled up into one. Damn.

 

cmineses_designs

Graphic Designer and Illustrator Christopher Mineses shares one of his latest pieces with us. It portrays His Airness himself rocking the KAWS x Air Jordan 4 all while wearing the iconic KAWS gloves. Judging by his stance, it looks like even Jordan was a bit worn out trying to secure a pair.
